Iterative merging heuristics for correlation clustering
Author
Summary, in English
A straightforward natural iterative heuristic for correlation clustering in the general setting is to start from singleton clusters and whenever merging two clusters improves the current quality score merge them into a single cluster. We analyse the approximation and complexity aspects of this heuristic and its three simple deterministic or random refinements.
